The 2016 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Clos de la Bussière is tightly-wound on the nose with blackberry, raspberry, hints of singed leather and spice. I appreciate the delineation here. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin, a fine bead of acidity, chalky in texture with a grip and certainly impressive focus on the finish. This is an excellent Morey-Saint-Denis. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting.

Monopole of less than 2 ha. South of Morey. Very Morey and lots of clay. Lost 25% in 2016. Barrel sample. Very deep crimson. Great drive and silky tannins. Lots of energy and definition. (JR)
